The Well and Other Stories

Set in Greece, Italy, the French Alps and Vancouver's Stanley Park, Faragher's stories achieve a cosmopolitan flair while remaining distinctly Canadian.Faragher's debut deftly combines sharp-witted narration, psychological twists, and an assembly of maladjusted characters whose dark desires governs their fates. The Well & Other Stories offers a safe vantage point to vicariously witness these dramas and allows an indulgent glimpse into those human entanglements that create voyeuristic tension.
